The Blacktron Renegade LEGO set was a staple of kids’ toy boxes in the ‘80s. Next month, The LEGO Group will drop a recreation of the iconic set for a new generation of space cadets to enjoy.
This 1151-piece model includes everything adults loved about the original Blacktron Future Generation series, from the asymmetrical design to the striking black and yellow colorway. By blending sci-fi nostalgia with modern technology, this set is a blast from the past that will delight every Gen X’s inner child.

This latest edition to the Blacktron Renegade collection includes several new pieces for new builders and longtime fans to enjoy. The set includes pieces to assemble a planet-rover drop pod, retractable landing gear, two wing-mounted space speeders, and a collection of astronaut mini-figures to bring the model to life for a modern-day galactic adventure.
The nostalgia doesn’t stop there! The kit also includes instructions to rebuild the set into a tricked-out version of the LEGO Blacktron Alienator from the original ‘80s collection, offering fans double the space-age fun.
The LEGO Blacktron Renegade Building Set will land in stores and online on Jan. 4. To learn more about the set, visit LEGO’s website.
